The Oscoda County Memorial Day event drew a crowd to the veteran memorial on the courthouse lawn. Local veterans, VFW members, a crowd of residents and a guest speaker all met to honor those who gave their lives to ensure the prosperity of the United States. The guest speaker of the afternoon was Phil Wise, who told a story of one of his missions in Vietnam attempting to save children. Near the end of the proceedings the Meo Mio Stitchers presented select veterans with quilts made specifically for them.
